The main altar of the sect.
The Jiaoxia Mountains and the accompanying Liyuan River are a rare geomantic treasure land of Yunmeng Heavenly Palace. The entire mountain range stretches for more than 30 million miles, with beautiful scenery, abundant spiritual energy, and various high-quality spiritual blessing places. , all kinds of natural materials and treasures suitable for female cultivators can be seen everywhere.
Since Princess Long Yi came over, this vast area has been under the control of Mu Yinghua and given to her as an exclusive dojo to accommodate the maids, maids, and guards who came with her.
Under normal circumstances, it is difficult for even a Daluo-level Supreme Elder to receive such treatment, but Princess Long Yi came to the door with a massive dowry and a quasi-sage emperor behind her. The two families are equal strategic allies. Naturally, Yunmeng Tiangong could not be too petty and neglect Tianhuang Guwei.
Anyway, the people assigned to her by Emperor Qinghuan were all female cultivators, so it was easy to come and go and would not have any negative impact on Yunmeng Palace.
In an exquisite and beautiful palace, Princess Long Yi and Emperor Qinghuan were walking in the back garden, and Su Yuanzhen followed them step by step.
A circle of bright water-like light appeared around Emperor Qinghuan, shrouding the two women around him, not only blocking the leakage of voices and spiritual thoughts, but also temporarily blocking the lines of cause and effect in the air. Make sure no outsiders can spy on their communications.
"...So, does he really accept you?"
Emperor Qinghuan asked softly.
Regarding the details of Qin Muling's retreat, Su Yuanzhen had reported everything in detail, which surprised the powerful man and gave him a new understanding of his potential value.
"It should... be like this, right?"
Princess Long Yi, with her beautiful face, said a little shyly: "After spending time together, I can basically confirm that his temperament is not bad, and he does not have any perverse, violent or intolerable habits. Although his senior sisters There is some hostility and rejection towards my daughter, but it is not difficult to talk to her, and it should not be difficult to maintain a good relationship in the future."
Emperor Qinghuan looked at his stunningly beautiful daughter with a bright face. He waved his jade hand lightly and took a handful of her body. A wisp of purple energy as fine as a hair, with a faint hint of chaotic stars, appeared at her fingertips. tip.
"Is this the blessing of luck? It is indeed mysterious and wonderful!"
Staring at the wisp of purple energy, Emperor Qinghuan sighed slightly.
After a month of seclusion, Princess Long Yi's energy seemed to have increased a little. Although the magnitude was not obvious, it was indeed the influence of the innate Hongmeng divine creature that made her change like this.
As for the changes in the girls Xue Bingxuan, it goes without saying. Even Mu Yinghua has such a strange phenomenon. It can be seen that anyone who is close to Qin Muling will more or less share his heaven-defying luck. .
If he could be allowed to practice with me for a period of time, wouldn't it be...
For a moment, Emperor Qinghuan had such an idea in his heart, but it was immediately rejected by reason. After all, he was Princess Long Yi's nominal mother. How could he ignore his identity and snatch the opportunity that belonged to his daughter?
However, the attraction of the innate Hongmeng divine object is unmatched by any chance encounter. If you are stuck at the pass of enlightenment and sainthood in the future and are unable to get in, you can't help but ask for help from this little person. Guys came to the rescue…
"His innate magical powers are really terrifying. Once leaked, the consequences will be so serious that even I can't handle them."
After thinking for a long time, Emperor Qinghuan said quietly: "What we can do is to postpone the time limit for the truth to be revealed as much as possible, so as to buy him enough time to grow up, and wait until he has the cultivation level of Taiyi Golden Immortal or even Daluo Golden Immortal in the future. , we are no longer afraid of the coveting of hostile external forces."
Princess Long Yi nodded: "This daughter understands and will do her best to protect him and prevent him from being plotted by outsiders."
No matter how important a secret is, as long as it is known to two or more people, it cannot be kept secret forever. It is only a matter of time before it is leaked. The only difference is the length of the confidentiality period.
Therefore, Emperor Qinghuan was very pragmatic. From the beginning, he never thought that Qin Muling's identity would never be exposed. The limit of keeping Qian'er secret for eight hundred years was the limit.
Of course, such a long time may be enough for Qin Muling to achieve the Daluo Dao Fruit. Even if the outside world knows his identity and origin, they will not be able to do anything to him, and they can only adopt the strategy of winning over and making friends.
"This time, I have brought tens of thousands of female cultivators, half of them from the Destiny Realm and the Immortal Realm. There are also some powerful men who are seriously injured and sleeping. Soon, Mu Ling will protect them and heal their wounds. We will see the effect. , if feasible, more people will be sent over in the future.”
Emperor Qinghuan looked solemn and said, these female cultivators are all her close confidants who were personally selected by her. They have served her for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. There is no problem with their loyalty, and the required confidentiality measures are also exact.
"Then how to calculate the reward for him?" Princess Long Yi asked.
"It has been discussed and he will not be deprived of any benefits, as long as he can satisfy me."
Emperor Qinghuan smiled and said that the three quasi-sage emperors of Taoting actually all have their own inheritance factions, including some great figures who are at the peak of Daluo and even half-stepped into the quasi-sage level.
Since Emperor Qinghuan is the only one in the Taoist court who has a female body, the pure female monks in Taixu Starry Sky generally have a close relationship with her. Of course, compared to the larger number of male monks, this emperor's power and influence are not dominant.
If Qin Muling's influence can really be used to allow these female cultivators to successfully overcome the disaster or recover from their injuries, then Emperor Qinghuan's strength and voice in the Taoist court will be significantly improved.
To put it bluntly, Qin Muling is now a strategic force multiplier. In the eyes of Emperor Qinghuan, his personal combat power is not worth mentioning, but it can increase the overall strength of his force by leaps and bounds, and this increase is Sustainable.
As long as he can be protected, it may not take long before Emperor Qinghuan will become the one with the greatest say in the Taoist court. Emperor Xuanyin and Emperor Weide combined will not be able to compete with him.
"so be it,"
Emperor Qinghuan said: "For you, I have spent more than half of my net worth. In the future, you will have to become a quasi-sage emperor and occupy a position in the decision-making level of the Taoist court. If you achieve this step, If you fail to achieve it, even your mother will be disgraced."
"Well, my daughter can save it."
Princess Long Yi said shyly, speaking of it, she was only two or three percent sure, but after having Qin Muling, her hope of becoming a quasi-sage emperor was not to say 100% certain, but at least 70% or 80%, right?
After pondering for a while, Emperor Qinghuan turned his head and looked at Su Yuanzhen: "Don't forget what I mentioned to you last time. The pot of Hongmeng Avenue Golden Pill that I plan to refine only needs this medicine. It’s attracted!”
When Su Yuanzhen heard this, a bright red color appeared on her plump and delicate face, and she said softly: "What I remember is that I have to find the right opportunity, otherwise I'm afraid he won't like it if I ask for it rashly."
The task assigned to her by Emperor Qinghuan was to collect some juice from the innate Hongmeng spiritual root and use it as a medicine for refining the golden elixir of Hongmeng Avenue. There was no place to look for him before, but now that he finally met Qin Muling, who was the innate Hongmeng god, he naturally had to seize the opportunity to get what he wanted.
Princess Long Yi couldn't do this with shame for the time being, so she could only let Su Yuanzhen, the dowry official, do it for her. Anyway, Emperor Qing Huan only looked at the results.
"I'm just asking him for some blood. It shouldn't be difficult, right?"
Princess Long Yi asked unclearly, perhaps a little abruptly, but with Emperor Qinghuan's reputation, Qin Muling would never refuse.
"This is hard to say,"
Su Yuanzhen said softly: "The innate Tao Yun spirit machine contained in the blood is limited. I'm afraid it won't be able to meet the requirements for alchemy. Otherwise, it will have to be enough, but this will definitely cause greater harm to his body. They will never agree, so I still have to come here as a concubine..."
Princess Long Yi was startled for a moment, and finally realized what she meant, and her face turned red with embarrassment. Such a matter was discussed openly, which overturned her previous understanding.
But Emperor Qinghuan didn't care much at all. It was related to his own opportunity to achieve enlightenment and become a saint. If there were conditions, he would have to meet them, and if there were no conditions, he would have to create conditions. The so-called influence of reputation was not worth mentioning at all.
The mountain behind Yudaofeng.
"... Junior brother, do you think this is okay?"
In the empty medicine garden, second senior sister Cheng Yulan put away the formation flag and asked.
"That's enough, leave the rest to me!"
Qin Muling looked around. This was a medicine garden that had just been built. Cheng Yulan was responsible for the erection and layout of various large and small formations.
"Be careful. If you break one, you won't be able to afford the compensation if I sell it."
Not far away, Yu Binghua gave orders with a solemn look. A large group of female cultivators specializing in the cultivation of elf medicine were distributed in the surrounding medicine fields. They were carefully opening the restrictions on the jade box in their hands and taking out pills of different shapes and emitting a faint scent. The seeds of Dan Lingguang were buried deep into the spiritual soil using a specific technique.
Spiritual soil and spiritual soil are specially prepared. They are mixed with a certain proportion of spiritual stone and spiritual crystal powder, as well as the blood of many spiritual beasts, plus some special secret medicine ingredients. There are also specially drawn spiritual veins underground to provide spiritual energy. , all to promote the smooth growth of the magic medicine seeds.
"One Sword Dominates"
These magical seeds from Emperor Qinghuan's cave world have been in hand for a long time, so naturally they cannot remain idle. This time, at Qin Muling's request, Cheng Yulan and the girls arranged enough manpower to build this thousand-hectare area. medicine garden and then sow them in batches.
"Junior brother, do you want me to help?"
Luo Wanqing, who had dazzling snow-skinned skin and was radiant, came over and asked with a smile. She had been in seclusion alone with Qin Muling for a few days. After getting her wish, she was now radiant, exuding majestic vitality from the inside out, and her cultivation level was It has caught up with the progress of the senior sister and reached the level of the late True Immortal.
Qi Yalan, who was next to her, rolled her eyes at her: "Pull her down! Apart from beating people with a stick, how can you, a physical practitioner, do such delicate work? Just stay aside!"
Luo Wanqing snorted a few times, but the third senior sister was right. She was the king in melee combat, but she really couldn't do such technical tasks as cultivating elixirs, refining elixirs, refining weapons, and deducing heavenly secrets. So she rashly Trying will only do you no good.
In a short time, the seeds of this batch of magical medicine have been sown.
Then, under Xue Bingxuan's command, all unrelated people exited. Immediately, the formation of the medicine garden was closed, making it difficult for outsiders to detect any changes inside.
A few breaths later, as Qin Muling activated his innate magical power, a huge green lotus phantom appeared, and the billowing blue air flow spread out and spread lightly, soon covering the medicinal garden with a radius of thousands of hectares, and countless dazzling stars. The light fell in the sky and quietly penetrated into the spiritual soil.
The senior sisters looked on silently,
As a massive amount of fresh air spreads, a bright ray of light flashes, and countless extremely subtle chaotic auras originate from Qin Muling's body, seeping into the spiritual soil and into the inside of these magical medicine seeds, moistening things and silently transforming and improving them. Endowment potential.
A moment later, with an inaudible sound, a seedling of the Seven-Yam Tiger-striped Purple Star Orchid broke through the surface of the spiritual soil, slowly poked its head out, and immediately grew up at a speed visible to the naked eye, sprouting branches and scattering leaves. …
Then, another crimson-leaf Tianyun Vine broke out of the ground. The crystal green vine slowly stretched and spiritually wrapped around the spiritual jade vine next to it, absorbing the spiritual spring spirit suitable for its growth from the formation. liquid.
Then, magical medicines with various shapes and different effects sprung up like bamboo shoots after a rain, growing at an incredible speed. Some of them grew very fast, and they could grow in less than half an hour. Nine feet high.
"...It's so amazing. These miracle medicines worth tens of thousands of dollars will mature in a year and a half at most, right?"
"Of course, if you use this magical power once, it is equivalent to saving them six thousand years of growth time!"
"Yes, but it will take at least three days for them to digest the source of this wave of chaotic spiritual energy contained in Qinghui, and they can only use it for the second time after three days."
"If it happens every three days, it will be more than a hundred times a year, which is equivalent to more than 600,000 years of heat. It is completely ready for harvesting and use!"
"Calculating it this way, even the heavenly medicine can be produced in batches in only a year and a half. This is really... There is no such endless squandering of heavenly medicine resources in the Taoist warehouse. ah!"
The senior sisters communicated softly, with excitement in their beautiful eyes. With an endless supply of raw materials for holy medicines and magical medicines, they can refine various high-grade elixirs without restriction, or sell them in exchange for what the sect needs. Other resources will not be lost anyway.
By the time Qin Muling finished her work, the originally empty medicine garden had turned into a colorful world full of magical medicines, and the fragrance of various medicinal herbs filled the air.
"Okay, let them take good care of it. I'll come back in three days." Qin Muling ordered.
"no problem."
Xue Bingxuan promised that these female nuns responsible for taking care of the medicine garden were reliable people and had taken perfect and thorough measures, so there was no need to worry about leaking secrets.
A ball of clear light appeared beside Qin Muling, and then Mu Yinghua's figure walked out.
"teacher!"
Qin Muling and the senior sisters bowed and saluted.
Mu Yinghua nodded slightly, looked around, and said with satisfaction: "Well done, now change your clothes and come with me to Daofeng!"
As she spoke, a set of dazzling and gorgeous sea blue dress appeared in her hands, as well as various gorgeous and exquisite hairpins, jade rings, gold steps and other jewelry accessories.
"OK."
Qin Muling looked troubled and reluctantly agreed. This was something that had been agreed upon earlier and there was really no way to refuse.
Xue Bingxuan suppressed a smile and said: "Junior brother, please stop pushing back! This is not as easy as it is for people in our sect to keep secrets. As long as there is an unreliable female cultivator among them, the consequences will be unpredictable. So, wear it anyway!”
The senior officials of Yunmeng Tiangong did not trust the female cultivators brought by Emperor Qinghuan who needed Qin Muling's protection to survive the tribulation, so they decided to let Qin Muling change his clothes to confuse the public. Anyway, his true identity must not be known to the outside world.
Several senior sisters gathered around and helped Qin Muling change clothes.
A moment later, a tall and graceful girl in palace clothes and snow-skinned girl with green buns appeared in front of the girls. Her bright eyes, white teeth, beautiful scenery, and radiant gaze made them, who were also women, all excited. I couldn't take my eyes off it and admired it.
"Young junior brother, you have nothing to say. If you go out on a trip, no one will doubt you if you say you are a junior sister!"
Qi Yalan cooed in a low voice and quickly stopped when she caught a glimpse of Qin Muling's displeased eyes.
Mu Yinghua smiled and took out another radiant veil to help Qin Muling put it on. At the same time, she silently used her magical power to impose multiple restrictions on it.
Soon, Qin Muling's figure and face were hidden in the layers of bright rays of light, making them indistinct. In the eyes of outsiders, they would only know that she was a female cultivator, but they could no longer see her identity clearly, and they could not even know her fate or destiny.
